Like everyone else in the audience who witnessed Adimu Madyun 's /Wolf Hawk Jaguar's, World Premiere film "Search For The Everlasting Coconut Tree," I was moved. The work he is doing in the community of West Oakland is a model for what we need to see replicated across the Nation/World. I recalled these words of Mircea Eliade paraphrased from the direct quote.The image of the tree is a cipher of a person's deeper life, of the drama that is played out in his subconscious and that concerns integrity of his psychomental life and hence his/her own existence. The symbol of the tree helps to awaken consciousness and ‘open’ it to the universe, enabling folks to resolve a deep crisis and restoring his/her threatened psychic equilibrium.As we all work to restore our sense of equilibrium from the horrible assaults and death in Kenya,and elsewhere (100 Black People were killed by Police in March) may we remember to work cooperatively like trees in the forest. Reach towards the light and love the humanity in self and others. Everybody needs to link in a harmonic convergence. Plant a seed of resurrection in you. ‪#‎Wearingwhiteagain‬ By Koko Zauditu-Selassie
